Dad-isms: Things I've Learned So Far

Hi,

You keep talking about the good guys and how girls don't notice them, but I think we do. In fact, I know girls (including me) who are looking for those guys especially. But it seems as though that things never work out. As an example I was clearly interested in someone you would consider a good guy (church, grades, all that good stuff) and other than texting one in a while, nothing came out of it. I know not everyone can be interested in you, but I wanted to let te good guys out there know that there are girls out there who are looking for them.

Also, because you're good at this stuff, what's the best way to get a "good guy" interested?

I love your blog, keep up the good work :)

Great question!

1. Make eye contact….a lot. Let him be the first to look away, not you which leads me to…

2. Make yourself approachable by not fiddling around when alone or with friends. A confident smile goes along way.

3. Guys are starved for compliments, get to know them well enough to give sincere ones when you get the chance.

4. Listen. Most guys will talk when given the chance and when they feel like the other person is genuinely interested.

5. Be well read and confident enough in your beliefs to articulate them.

6. All guys love a good sense of humor just like you gals, it shows you don’t take yourself to seriously.

7. Pray. God still takes requests and sometimes he ‘plays’ them.

Let me know how things turn out will you?
